The Highest Church in Eu-
rope.
From the Bundner Tagblntt,

From the Bundner Tagblatt.
The highest church in Europe is the
Pilgrimage Chapel OF st. Maria de
Ziteit. above Salux, in the canton OF
Graubunden. II lies 2,4S4 meters
above the sea level-nearly 5000 feet
hi.h. above the forest, near the limits
of perpetual snow. It is only open
during the summer time OF that re-
zion, or as the folks thareabout recie-
on. from St. John the Baptist's Day
to st. MichaePs Day, and is used only
by the Alp herds, who remain there
through the summer with their cowS
and goats, and occasionally by hunt
ers IN search Of the chamois and mar
mot. All the inhabitants OF saliix
climb up thither on Midsummer Day
TO assist at the first mass and hear
the first sermon OF the year, and there
is also a crowded congregation on
Michaelmas Day at the last service
OF the wear. From time TO time q few
stray pilgrims from the Graubunden
Oberland and the Tyrol find theiE
wav there. The second bigss@s
church, probably, in Europe--that or
open only in the SUM
mer. belongs to Graubunden. At our
visit She hale old preacher had five
foreign tourists for his congregation.

Hon. L. e. McComas says of the

Hon. L. e. McComas says of the
Presidents message:
1.-THE Presidents message does not
convey ito Congress the information
OF the state of the Union which he
and his predecessors have uniformly
heretofore given to Congress at the
opening CT new Congress, because
it omits information as to the trans
actions of the great departments and
recommendations for legislation in
the public interest. He is silent re-
sDecting the important business of
the State Department., and confines
his message to the fiscal situation.
This is of pre-eminent Importance,
but not the sole subject of considera.
ton for Congress. The surplus, says
the President, was fifty-five millions
in June, 1887. The President be-
lieyes, as | do, that it should be re-
duced by reducing revenue. He
squarely opposes any reduction Of
internal revenue-the war taxes
which yield 100000, 1000, and makes
long argument in favsr of gradual
approach to freetrade. He takes the
surplus as weapon to assault mod.
crate protection system. l believe
the present situation requires the
agreement of men who, first of ALL
wish to reduce the surplus. Free
raw materials may greatly increase
the free list, yet can but slightly re-
duce the surplus. The President
wishes us to take the tariff off Of
foods, but does not say a word In
favor of repeal of the duty on SUI
CARS. For instance. the tariff on coal
adds 100000 to the surplus, but the
tariff on sugars adds SOL 100000 to the
surplus. would vote to reduce OF
repeal the tariff on sugar; to take of
the tax on alcohol, when used fol-
manufactures, the arts, drugs and
medicines, and on tobacco as farm
product of 1000 counties of the
Union. There would then be nc
surplus revenue, and any tariff re.
adjustment should be with friendly
hand, to protect existing industry
and labor as employed, altogether
relieved from the problem of the
surplus. hope, therefore. that Con.
gress will first of all consider the sur.
plus"
